Marriage licence; without one, your wedding is just a really fun party! So if you’re planning a wedding in Ontario you’re going to need a marriage licence. While all marriage licences are created equal, they do vary in price depending on where you decide to get your licence. You do not need to purchase your marriage licence in the city or town that you'll be married in. You can get your licence in any community in Ontario. A marriage licence is valid for 90 days from the date it is issued.
